Israel/Palestine

(12,283 posts)thats a fantasy.....if it ever comes to an agreement, i would assume the blocs remain and the smaller posts are destroyed. Bringing back 300,000 settlers would cause chaos in israel, economically, physically and socially. (most of the gaza settlers took a very long time to get resettled......finally taking over a failed kibbutz), ....but the actual withdrawal went far smoother than the IDF imagined.
as far as blowing up the water plants?....israel is vulnerable to having chemical plants blow up spewing gasses all over haifa, so thats just your imagination at play (that israel must stay in the west bank for the water...especially since the underground water of the main acquirer flows toward israel) ..werent you one of those who believed that israel invaded lebanon for a 2" water pipe a few years ago?...ooops
and those pools in the west bank....i personally have never seen any, but if there are i would assume its one per the larger settlements. i know the arial has got one, just like the Palestinian cities.
the settlers are not rich and don't have pools in their back yards.....thats just one of the little fantasies based on the "end justifies the means"...i.e. making up stuff is good, especially if it gets around and is believed.
housing crunch is in Tel Aviv/Jerusalem...not in the desert or semi desert areas or the outlying areas around Tel Aviv-20 minute train ride.
keep em coming.....it wont change your mind, but i'm sure there a few amused readers, reading this.
